UNDERTALE - Spearhead

February Recap


Ahh, February. Short month, and the second month in a row where the last day landed on a Saturday. Real convenient.

What isn't convenient are my allergies right now. It's real bad.

Enough about all that though. Let's go through everything that happened this month:


The Great Room Resprite

I decided the old look for rooms just wasn't it. They were good but they didn't fit in with the OG tiles in Snowdin and beyond. So I decided to remake the tilesets, more faithful to Undertale.

The walls are the biggest change. Most of everything else hasn't been touched, or at most a color change.

I also got puzzles that save when you leave, and got text to be pretty accurate to Undertale. The font is correct, the spacing and such.

Cubert Graces Us

Work on battle is going decently well. Right now I have to implement:

- Spare particles

- Attacking particles & Effects

- Health Bar/Spare Bar

- Encounter Logic

- Battle Music Manager

- Real Enemies (We will miss Cubert)

That's not bad! My goal for March is to get the first five done.

Though for those who are very keen eyed, you may have noticed the BP bar is gone... that is because I decided to remove it. It wasn't my favorite decision but I couldn't see it working well. Not for the type of fangame I'm making.


Updating the OST

It's an ongoing process, but like 8 of the 10 songs I had released didn't hold up, so I remade and have uploaded 5 of them, with two more done.

I've improved a lot as a musician and have truly made better pieces, that also reflect the similar but different vibe I'm going for.


Shameless Recruitment Attempt

I have gotten a new artist! (Hooray)

Despite having someone to work alongside with, I still need an artist or two, specifically sprite artists.

I don't mean to sound desperate but truthfully, I need some as I can't sprite everything.

If this interests you, more details are in this post, as well as the pinned post of the game.

I just lost The Game.


Goals for March & Conclusion

I already mentioned polishing the battle system out, and it shouldn't be too hard.

I also want to work on rooms a lot. my goal is recreate and update all the ruins rooms that will be returning. I'm not too far but I do have some of the harder rooms done.

Finally, I hope to release all 10 songs again, just their updated versions. I have like 1 more. And that's if I decide to have that.

Issue No. 2

Don't think I ever posted the full/isolated version of the intro panels for Twisted Will (my Undertale AU) by themself so here they are

Word from our new concept artist!

Excited to see what they cook up for Spearhead!

New tileset! Much more faithful to OG Undertale, mainly just cleaning up the roughness of it.

Is it good?

Dusttale AU challenge, but SP! Dusttale

Working on battle... wonder what BP stands for...
